The cable from the endpin jack to the battery in one of my acoustics is flapping around unsecured. What do you use to secure it? It probably needs doing in a couple of places at least inside the body. Thanks.

    Look for "self adhesive clip/wire tie" on ebay or amazon. The small stiff ones are similar to those you get with fishman soundhole pickups. You can also use the larger ones for tidying the underside of your pedalboard.

    Be aware that they do have an irritating habit of falling off after a few years when the sticky pad dries out, but you can easily replace them or just superglue them on...
